NAME

6       basepods - print out pod paths for the standard perl manpages
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This program uses your configuration's "installprivlib" directory to
10       look up the full paths to those pod pages.  Any files in that directory
11       whose names end in ".pod" will be printed to the standard output, one
12       per line.  This is normally used in backticks to produce a list of
13       filenames for other commands.
14

EXAMPLES

16           $ podgrep typeglob `basepods`
17
18           $ basepods | grep delt
19           /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5004delta.pod
20           /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perl5005delta.pod
21           /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/pod/perldelta.pod
22
23       You can also run this using alternate perl binaries, like so:
24
25           $ oldperl -S basepods | grep delt
26           /usr/lib/perl5/pod/perldelta.pod
27
28           $ podgrep -i thread `filsperl basepods | grep delt`
29           ....
